Franks Psychiatry 4 #60: weary

Frank Prem

and I give them so much of myself
everything I can
until my head is a spin
of issues and events
of decisions and repairs
plans and predictions
treatment and containment

 

I give them all I have

 

and it is not enough

 

never quite enough

 

 

 

 

I am
so
tired

    There are so many good people out there doing good works in places like this, it is not much that I can give except my profound respect and thanks.

    • Frank Prem

      Cheers GF, and thank you.

      It's been a full career. Not done yet.

      This reminds me of that saying; you don't notice you're drowning because you're busy being everyone else's anchor. It's exhausting. You have to take time for you.

        Good saying, that, SLR. All a long time ago now.

        Thnaks for reading and commenting.

        Frank,
        I cannot even imagine the mental and physical fatigue imposed upon you to do your job! Astonishing!

          I can tell from looking at this and the preceding and following poems that I was pretty burnt out by then, Laura. Clearly needing to change jobs, which I did.

          Wouldn't do it again for quids.
